A word from the owner
"Every car that leaves this workshop carries our name on it. That's the standard we build to."
I'm Fransua, founder of Xtreme Ridez. From our fully equipped workshop in Boschkop, Pretoria East, my 30+ expert technician team and I handle every stage of a restoration or custom build — body, chassis, mechanical, interior and paint.
We take on a limited number of projects at a time, because the work deserves nothing less than our full attention. If you have a car worth doing properly, I'd love to hear about it.
